Certain authorities on the eub- ject hold that the song quoted above robbed the once “Hveat mile on the face of the globe” of Its glamor; there are others lust as certain the advent cf prohi bition turned the Bowery Into the drab and bedraggled street It is today. Leaving such disputes to those who delve into the archives of forgotten glory. If glory It can be called, it must be admitted that the wicked old eighties and the naughty nineties are lammed with as colorful accounts of breezy goings-on as can be found in any period of American his tory. To the lot of Wallace Beery, who can do more with a smirk or a silly grin than most leading men can do with an entire film of acting, falls the task of bring ing to the screen one of the most picturesque characters of the time when the Bowery was in full flower. He has now added to his overflowing gallery of silent and talking screen portraits the characterization of Chuck Con nors, as will be seen when ‘‘The Bowery” plays as a United Ar tists release Thursday and Fri day of next week at the New Or- pheum Theatre. With all due respect to the rich color of George Raft's Steve Brodie and Jackie Cooper’s Swipes, tile newsboy, in “The Bowery,” the characterization of Charlotte. March 26.—Polly ivore no medal today but then the is chtlftren at the Alexander home here wore emllea—viiUilt probably was reward enough for Polly. “ Polly Is a pet parrot at the home for children, any one or more of whom she saved from possible asphyxiation last week. One of the newest residents of the home, sl'little blond girl with a mania for mischief, wandered into the kitchen and turned on all the gas stove jets. Then she wandered out. The parrot was on her perch near the stove, calmly plucking her feathers—a procedure Inter rupted by the sounds and smell of escaping gas. Agitated, Polly flthv to the din ing room where Mrs. F. A. Sharpe, the home superintendent, sat eating. The parrot ran rapid ly across the” table, scattering silver and china. ! “Come quick! Come quick!” Polly screamed. The lilrd’s vo-j cabulary Is extensive. Mrs. Sharpe followed Polly to ’ the kitchen which had become, filled with gas. She opened the j windows. • i “If it hadn’t been for Polly,” j the superintendent explained, | “anyone of the children might { have gone into the kitchen and i have been overcome.” , As a reward, the bird was giv-.; en an extra strip of^ breakfast, bacon and cheese. Then it flew ■ back to its perch and resumed , the interrupted chore of preen- j ing its plumage. !
